Royce vs Shotgun Suge- suge dissed Detroit and proof yet still not one battle rapper from there has beaten him. There's styles aren't similar but shiiit, I'm tryna see a slaughterhouse member beat at least one URL cat if possible.

Dizaster is trash now. So is conceited. So is mook. So is iron.
Joe already going up against Hollow, so I'd keep that.

I see those guys getting their old shit back ..so don't dismiss them
I'd try to match styles as close as possible so :
Eminem vs Thesaurus or dumbfounded - if y'all watched Em actually battle and not that 8 mile shit, I think they're in the same realm style wise.

yes Peter vs Marshall would be nice..had that nigga as a reserve too..But does dumbfounded still battle?

Verb ..is he on his old shit or the lastest one because he stopped bringing it for a while

NOW THIS..would be the MAIN event...I can see trick trick and his Squad whooping on Suge after the battle too...LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOl

Slaughterhouse really isn't worthy of being called "Battle Rappers". Anyone who thinks they are has more to learn about punchlines and wordplay

Budden could probably hang, Eminem could've back in the day and probably still could've. The other 3 would likely get bodied. There's a huge difference between rapping about hard shit and actually being a battler

What makes a battle rapper a battle rapper.aint novody goin off the top these days

Battle rappers know how to construct punches that involve a double meaning.

Eminem vs Juice: "You couldn't make the crowd throw up their hands if they swallowed their fingers"

this is what a non battle rapper (Canibus) sounds like trying to battle rap:

and his shit was garbage WAAAAYYYYY before the choke. The ONLY reason he got any reaction from that crowd is because he was well known, if ANYONE else went out their and said the same Canibus did, it would've been crickets and a bunch of dudes standing around like "yo, this guy sucks"

The people that can't distinguish between the 2 are the people who need to learn what they're talking about before they ever start talking on the topic of lyricism

You know. I don' have a problem with battle rapping (live) or white people's involvement with Hip Hop, but it appears by looking at the video that @PurelyDef posted that the audience is 90% white and the battlers are 90% white. Now don't accuse me of being a hate-monger or a Nazi but I just think its interesting that Black people don't participate in larger numbers.

If you watch the video its a lot of white people with baseball hats.

It's King Of The Dot - it's in Canada, and KOTD tends to appeal to white people a lot more. Smack/URL is for the more Urban demographic. Granted, there are people who enjoy both styles

Actually Canibus's first rhyme was dope. But he didn't finish strong. And then he choked on hi second rhyme.
